Exercises

To get you familiar with the content of this chapter, these additional exercises will attempt to test you on what you’ve learned, and prepare you for later sections:

  • Find a datasheet for the Bluefruit LE UART Friend. Find the electrical current used by the device, along with its width and height for fitting it.
  • We are going to add such a Bluetooth board to our robot. Use the dimensions from the datasheet to make a part in your test-fit diagram.
  • Find a space on the robot for this part that does not overlap with other parts.
  • Look on the websites of the previously mentioned stores. See if you can find out where you’d be able to buy this part.
